Job - the Wisdom of the Cross (Preaching The Word Series)

Very helpful companion when we are reading the book of Job. It is verse-by-verse, very detailed exposition on the book of Job. Great read for those who are undergoing some kind of suffering or preparing our faith for suffering or to help our friend that is suffering. Most of all, what I love is that at the end of each chapter, there is connection to Jesus Christ, as the Bible says that faith comes from hearing the word of Christ (Romans 10:17)

This book is worth the time invested in it if you want to be encouraged to be a man/ woman of God during those difficult seasons. The writing of the commentary in layman terms, the way Ash relates it to our walk with God and the link of the book of Job with the Gospel makes this book a superb read not just for the sake of understanding the book of Job, but also for those time of suffering n discouragement.

This is easily the best commentary on Job that I have come across. It answers the questions that I have had about Job, but have never before had them adequately answered. \\nIt is both sobering and encouraging, always pointing to Christ. Very realistic about life in this world for the believer, certainly destroying any soft versions of the Christian life. \\nDisturbing at times, but also full of real hope. Cannot recommend this book too highly. \\n

Christopher Ash does an amazing job at illustrating and interpreting the passages from Job. The book has given me a fresh fire for God's Word, and has shown me just how important the book of Job is. Ash makes it so clear how Christ and cross centred this book is, and he makes every single chapter riveting and left wanting more. 5 stars EASY.
